Like Hot Rod, I chose the Hurst ****, only in classic white. It looks great in a black interior (it's a real visual focal-point) and it feels incredible...much better than any "ergonomically-correct" **** I've ever tried.
The Hurst just looks more period-correct in the C4 than the trendy ***** so popular with today's young owners of Asian imports....


PS I believe the C4 and C5 shifters use the same threads, so...except for the shift patterns not matching...you can interchange.

Hmmmmm, thinking cap on (and don't say, for a change ).

Does the Hurst shifter ball fit the stock, C4 shifter and threads? (thinking cap not on straight--if it were, if shifter fits, it's gotta fit the threads... )

(Okie-dokie, I won't... )

Sure does, Bill.
These particular Hurst ***** are specifically MADE for the C4's and the C5's....one part number for C4 and another for C5, of course.

I have a MOMO "Race Aluminum" - got it from LTB Motorsports. MOMO's are universal-fit, so you don't have to worry about threads.
